I'm trying to add a second ip my network interface and it doesn't work. Here
is the part in my rc.conf

defaultrouter="10.0.0.1"
hostname="bsdtest1.corp.mysite.com"
ifconfig_xl0="inet 10.0.10.44 netmask 255.255.0.0"
ifconfig_xl0_alias0="inet 10.0.10.45 netmask 0xffff0000"

and also I have tried

ifconfig_xl0_alias0="inet 10.0.10.45 netmask 255.255.0.0"

Any idea?

Thank you
Maz.

Set the netmask on your secondary addresses to 0xffffffff.

This is my partial rc.conf under /etc directory

ifconfig_xl0="inet 192.168.1.100 netmask 255.255.255.0"
defaultrouter="192.168.1.1"

ifconfig_xl0_alias0="inet 192.168.1.101 netmask 255.255.255.255"
ifconfig_xl0_alias1="inet 192.168.1.102 netmask 255.255.255.255"

If I want to add another IP 192.168.1.103 from command line, try this as
root:

#ifconfig xl0 add 192.168.1.103 netmask 255.255.255.255

Hope that help you.

Thank you! that did it... I was using the same netmask as the one in my
ifconfig_xl0

"man ifconfig" specifically states not to do that !

It used to work doing it that way, but not since 4.7, I
believe.

My 4.7 with about 100+ IPs on the same card works the same as it
did in all previous versions.
